TrendingHow Much Is One Dollar Worth To You?Publication: RidiculouslyExtraordinary. Posted by Ryan Neal

You'd almost think this was going to be a political post or maybe me shedding light on the Third World.

Nope, this is about making money.

One Dollar Can Change Your Life

I've been hanging out with some very successful people in a top-secret location somewhere in Europe. ;) (Hence my train ride last Thursday.) It got me thinking.

Can you figure out how to make one dollar?

If you can figure out how to make one dollar, do you think you can figure out how to make $2?

How about $10?

If you can do $10, you can surely do $100, right?

And once you reach $100, you're really not that far off from $1,000. So on and so forth.

The point is, don't get caught up in making a million dollars right now. Don't get caught up in making job replacement income right now. Do get caught up in how to make that first dollar right now.

You do need to think big, but there is no shame in starting small. Too many people get so caught up in trying to hit home runs that they never even swing the bat.

Once you make that first dollar a "switch" will go off in your mind. A transition of sorts. Making money for yourself will no longer be a dream, but a reality.

The One Dollar Experiment

Many years ago (2002) I had a Web site called the One Dollar Experiment. The goal then was to start with $1 and grow it into something much greater. It took me 6 months to get than $1 to $450 and then I quit the experiment. I was doing it more for publicity than to make money, and the publicity was non-existent.

So I thought, why not do another One Dollar Experiment?

But this time it's your experiment. The only rule is that you have to earn $1 for yourself.

True, it's just one dollar, but every single person in history had to start at that point. You'll be in good company. ;)

Is one dollar worth your future, your freedom? I hope so.

You don't need to let me know if you're in. I want you to let me know when you succeed. You can e-mail me or post here in the comments.

Will be back in Wroclaw tomorrow and will catch up on e-mails/comments then. I've only responded to about 5 e-mails in the past 4 days, sorry about that!
